    Any merchandise purchases, ticket purchases, membership, anything you've paid the club for in the last six months, contact the club via the contact us form on the website, and demand a refund. Absolutely spam the crap out of them. Turn this into a thing, if we can get hundreds if not thousands of people demanding a refund on goods and services they are not satisfied with, it sends a stronger message than just shouting outside the ground, with the added bonus that it is still a peaceful protest.

    Good plan but as far as I can see only a small minority of fans interested in protesting. We can only hope

    If you have 500 fans demanding refunds on everything they've paid for in the last 6 months you've got a pretty big problem on your hand. The sheer amount of administration would be a massive pain in the ass and make employees question the situation.

    Bates is rich, he doesn't give a flying wotsit about the club. Protest, don't buy the merchandise etc etc he doesn't care. He can walk away still a rich man. The only people who might suffer are the staff who may find themselves out of a job.

    The goal isn't to hit him in the wallet personally, the goal is to get him to leave. As soon as Leeds United stops being profitable, he's no reason to stay. So stop buying merchandise, stop buying tickets, demand refunds, anything you can.

    Except if the club gets in such a bad state and it's his fault someone will step in to save us. Hopefully.

    All it'll do is to lengthen the dole queues in Leeds.
